Code examples:

curl JavaScript PowerShell Python R

Querying

Get 5 results containing "jones" in any field:

curl https://data.nsw.gov.au/data/api/action/datastore_search \
  -H"Authorization:$API_TOKEN" -d '
{
  "resource_id": "ae9dca04-f68f-4dfe-9675-57c9ebe37585",
  "limit": 5,
  "q": "jones"
}'

const resp = await fetch(`https://data.nsw.gov.au/data/api/action/datastore_search`, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
        'content-type': 'application/json',
